Per Diem Icu Rn information

How do per diem ICU RNs typically integrate with full-time staff and adapt to different ICU protocols?

Per Diem ICU RNs often work in multiple hospital settings and may cover shifts on short notice, so they must quickly adapt to each unit's specific protocols, documentation systems, and team dynamics. They are usually oriented to key procedures and emergency protocols, but flexibility and strong communication skills are crucial for collaborating with both permanent staff and physicians. Building rapport and staying updated on best practices help Per Diem RNs provide high-quality care despite varying work environments.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a per diem ICU RN, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Per Diem ICU RN, you need expertise in critical care nursing, advanced patient assessment, and current RN licensure, often with ACLS and BLS certifications. Familiarity with ICU-specific equipment, electronic health records (EHRs), and specialized monitoring systems is essential. Strong critical thinking, adaptability, and effective communication are vital soft skills for managing high-acuity patients in a fast-paced, flexible schedule environment. These skills ensure safe, high-quality patient care and seamless integration into diverse ICU teams.

What is a per diem ICU RN?

A Per Diem ICU RN is a registered nurse who works in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) on an as-needed basis, rather than having a set full-time or part-time schedule. 'Per diem' means 'per day' in Latin, and in healthcare it refers to nurses who fill staffing gaps, cover shifts, or respond to high patient volumes. These nurses must be highly skilled in critical care and able to quickly adapt to different teams and patient needs. Per diem ICU RNs often enjoy flexible schedules and higher hourly pay but may not receive full-time benefits. Their work is essential for maintaining high-quality patient care in the ICU during periods of increased demand.

About PRN Healthcare

Our story starts with a 21-year-old CNA named Pete Hietpas. Pete was diligently working in eastern Wisconsin with a variety of staffing agencies, but something was missing. He loved caring for his patients, but felt that staffing agencies were exchanging compassion for competitiveness. He was determined to change that. As a result, he started Nurses PRN in 1995 to become a model for the healthcare staffing industry – being competitive in the marketplace, yet still maintaining a compassionate heart.


Over the years Nurses PRN grew and evolved as a nationwide healthcare staffing company, and therefore wanted to be more inclusive to all valued healthcare professionals: nurses, allied health, locum tenens, CNAs, and more. This lead to the introduction of PRN Healthcare, which is inclusive of Nurses PRN and all of our other healthcare divisions.


Our mission to create authentic, meaningful relationships with our healthcare professionals helps us set them up for success in their dream assignment, whether that be a travel contract, local contract, or per diem shift. This is all driven by the simple idea that better care for our healthcare workers, leads to better patient care – and this is all supported by a dedicated internal staff.


Our company culture is strongly backed by faith-based values and activities, to remind us that our success provides us the opportunity to serve and give back to our communities. This is the spirit of caregiving. This is PRN Healthcare.
